As the Israeli air force continue to bombard the Palestinian civil structure and the democratically elected HAMAS (H.arakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiyya) leadership, people of all faiths gather at the Israeli embassy in London to voice their anger at the assault and the number of civilians killed.

The Palestinian infrastructure is now severely stretched as a result of the military assault with reports that hospitals are now operating at breaking point with drugs and essential supplies in short supply.

So far over 280 people are reported to have been killed, most of them civilians including children.

Police take a strong line with the protesters and a number of people are arrested and taken away.

Several are also injured as police officers push violently at the crowd in an attempt to get them to move away.

Throughout, Kensington High Street is closed and remains closed for much of the afternoon.

The protest is scheduled to be repeated tomorrow, Monday 29th December.
